It was windy out there today on the march down Broadway, across Wall Street, and past the Stock Exchange. The masses were out, demanding peace and economic security. I had the good fortune to march with Reverend Billy, the Green Party candidate for Mayor of New York City. Michael O'Neil of the Green Party told me about the MTA Service Specialists. These young women have taken it upon themselves to improve service on the subways and help riders have a better experience.
The MTA Service Specialists will make you laugh, as they mock the service cuts, restore civility and good will to the subways, and provide their own services: helping riders with directions, carrying strollers, and distributing tissues, snacks, and beautiful smiles.
